Paula Screws Up, A Bit

May 1st, 2008 by Music Gossiper

On American Idol they switched up the judges’ format making them hold their comments until every contestant had a turn, Abdul offered feedback for two songs sung by Jason Castro - except that he’d only sung one song, doh! No matter have ditzy Paula acts sometimes you really gotta love her attitude, she is always up and really has only glowing things to say about each contestant, the perfect anti-Simon elixir.

 ”Oh gosh, we’ve never had to write these things down - I’m not fast enough,” she began, shuffling through her notecards. “Jason, first song, I loved hearing your lower register, which we never really hear, um … .” And that’s where she slipped down the slope of no return. “The second song, I felt like your usual charm wasn’t - it was missing for me. It kind of left me a little empty.”

After a bit of nervous crowd laughter, Jackson finally broke the tension. “That was just on the first song,” he said sheepishly, pointing up to Castro. “Just on the first one.” Simon Cowell closed his eyes and shook his head, and began to guffaw as Abdul’s confusion mounted. “Oh my god, I thought you - I thought you sang twice!” she said. She then tried to explain that she got confused by looking ahead at the notes for David Cook. At that point Seacrest, who makes his money by smoothing over situations just such as these, pointed to Abdul, saying: “You’re seeing the future, baby!” before cutting her off and throwing it to Cowell. Big deal, right?

Music and Games

March 17th, 2008 by Music Gossiper

So who likes to play games? I do, I do!!! Seriously I am 40 years old but I love to play all sorts of games. I remember when I was young, a pre-teen, my favourite game was monopoly and something called ‘Movie Makers’. On TV you could catch me watching the now famous ‘Name that Tune’ almost daily.

These days you can find a zillion games by heading over to your nearest web browser any typing in free online games, your search will yield tons of great time-wasters from racing games to card games.

Besides my weekly poker game I still enjoy many types of games. Scrabble online at Facebook and various other free online games sites. If you have kids and are looking for some great music related games online check out Kaboose.
